"Beach Bag Must-Haves" @BugletUS #SUMMERTIME

IT'S OFFICIALLY SUMMER!!!

The weather’s heating up and families across the country will be heading to pool parties,  shoreline to cool off, or maybe going to hike in the woods. 

 Now you have to ALWAYS have some basic essentials like suit, towels, sunscreen, but what about the extras??

Like this Buglet

It is a reusable, all-natural insect repellent slap bracelet for kids.  The bracelet houses a pumice stone face dial that absorbs and emits a mild scent of the insect repellent oil.  The oil never touches the child as it is directly applied to the pumice stone, so it is great for kids with sensory and skin sensitivities.  You just add more oil as the scent fades and more protection will be needed if the stone gets wet. 

The repellent oil contains 100% natural oils with 100% active ingredients.  There is zero DEET or harmful toxins in this product. WINNER in my book already---but when my daughter headed out with a friend for a picnic at the State Park I knew it would be the perfect place to give the buglet a try. She did pack another spray just in case but never took it out of her bag! Went for a half hour walk and no  bug bites!

So easy to apply the oil and snap on! There are a verity of vivid colors and animals you're sure to find one that your child will love. The faces are interchangeable too.  Check out more information at the website keep up to date with them on their Facebook  page --> HERE    Cannot wait to see what other cute creatures they come out with next--my daughters suggestions-Blue Butterfly or Silver Snails.

Getting dirty is a childhood right; for parents it is their job to clean up the aftermath. From cute hooded towels, to rubber duckies parents spend a lot of time trying to encourage their kids to bathe. There seems to be two sides to the spectrum, little ones who love bath time and are part fish or, a child that has to be pleaded with to bathe. Either way Kandoo has you covered! They have fun smells and the soap makes great suds for hours of fun. They also have the little bums covered with a great flush-able wipe that honestly some times I even use ;]

Keeping little noses clean can be another MONSTER:  Extra soft and scented in Great Grape, unscented and fresh scent—the fun scents encourage little ones to actually care for their runny nose.

With spring allergies in full force,  your home is a boogie battlefield. From runny noses, to sneezes to dry itchy noses the family cannot catch a break. Boogie Wipes has the solution to this problem and can spring clean the icky feelings right up.  Boogie Wipes and Boogie Mist work together to relieve these awful symptoms and are great products the whole family can use. I like tossing a few of the loose packs in the diaper bag for when I'm on the go, and the cute container looks great and has an easy pop up lid that little hands can grab a boogie wipe at home. 

Sit Smart with @backjoy : Change your posture Change your life #giveaway ends 5/8

For many, mom was our first teacher.

She taught us how to spell our names & tie our shoe

More importantly, mom taught life lessons and shared advice that we carry into our adult lives.  

One universal piece of advice that nearly every mom
 shared, is “Sit Up Straight.”

Turns out, this was pretty good advice as we hear more about the benefits 
of good posture and the health risks of poor posture.

Mother's Day Gift Idea :@NobisInc Headwear timeless essentials merged with unique authenticity!

Humans have covered their heads since time immemorial.  Initially headwear offered protection from the elements and from injury from falling rocks, weapons or masonry.  Later head coverings became symbols of status of authority.

In fashion terms, hats are a very noticeable accessory because the onlooker’s attention is first drawn to the face. A hat is the most noticeable fashion item anyone can wear.  Hats when worn today are either worn for a special dressy occasion such as a wedding or conversely as casual statement attire in the way that caps might be worn the wrong way around.

It is unlikely that the hat will ever die as an accessory as it offers far too much potential for drawing attention to the face.  Fashion designers are aware of this have stylish and cost effective gifts for both men and woman.

One such company is  Nobis. At  Nobis,  their  commitment to be the inspiration and passion for your unique sense of individuality and personal style.

As a Mom with a dream of attending the Kentucky Derby- just so I can take in all the great hats-I would love to go back to the day of wearing a hat for every occasion. A hat from Nobis would be a nice addition to my collection.






 They were kind enough to send me one to try out- I picked the Jared-
I have to start out by saying I love how well packed the hat
was. The hat has Herringbone brim with natural straw trim.
 Fully finished with a soft lightweight sheer cotton lining. 
Nobis quick-dry sweatband. Nobis metal threaded bar branding.

Being fashionable while running from activity to activity offers busy Moms a look that says, "I've got this handled." A hat  from the Nobis spring/summer '15 collection will have every Mom prepared for rain or the hot summer sun while watching their little soccer star this season.

Nails are looking NICE in #PureIce @OfficialPureIce #contest

How can you resist PurICE with over  over 100 colors?

I went and got so with the bits of sparkle in them  

I think they are a great EZ (and cheap) way to jazz up your nails for

date night.

I decided to do all but pointer in the Stop and Stare  pointer got a coat of Party of Five. 

It's inexpensive and it has nice colours! They also dry quickly. The liquid is not too thin or thick, it's nice with two coatings and a top coat--worth every penny of the $1.97 price point.

How I spent my Mother's Day

I hope everyone had a blessed Mother's Day. My started with a table full
of homemade love...it cracked me up that they left it on top
of the laptop.

Daughter " We knew you wouldn't MISS it there "

We enjoyed a lovely Church service...we had a Father and Daughter
 sing a duet--was so lovely had every Mom  wiping away tears.

 We enjoyed a meal prepared by my Dad and my kids and Hubby cleaned the kitchen.
My Mom " THATS the best gift!!!"
Then they presented us each with a table full of flowers,veggie plants and scratch-offs =D

I'm going to have to use my winnings from the scratch offs  to invest in a new pair of gardening gloves so I don't mess up the great manicure I got from my daughter.

We ended the day playing cards where my Mom won every game.

CARAFE by Sabi Water Cup ~~ Review ~~

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

It has happened to all of us. We go to take a pill but we don’t have a glass of water on hand.

The CARAFE water cup and pill box all in one is the  answer.

 The cup  is handy to have around the house or on your bedside table it's also great for road trips. I love the tight seal top  to prevent any spills- or curious  cats that like to jump up on our night stand!


The CARAFE water cup holds 124 ml of water and its pill box features two large compartments suitable for pills of any shape and size.

FOLIO strap + go weekly travel pill box Review

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

The FOLIO pill box is made for those on a twice daily a.m./p.m. regimen of vitamins, supplements, or pills. It is a cut above the standard 14-door pill box and is much easier to load, with one universal lid.
It’s also much easier to extract pills from the FOLIO pill box. With other pill organizers, it’s nearly impossible to get your fingers into the pill box compartments and it’s necessary to turn the entire pill box upside-down to shake out its contents. The FOLIO pill box features rounded compartments that make extraction of pills quick and easy.
The FOLIO pill box is also much sleeker than any of the twice-daily pill organizers out there. It fits elegantly and stylishly into purse or briefcase, and can be taken out anywhere

Easy Pill crusher ~~Review~~

Disclosure: I got this product as part of an advertorial.

CRUSH with  minimal effort pill crusher. There is also a pill box inside the cap  HOW CONVENIENT.

 

For people who don’t like taking pills or who have difficulty swallowing them and instead choose to crush medications into a powder and take them in food.

Most pill crushers on the market require repeated twisting and untwisting to get the job done, and can be very difficult on the hands. In addition, most pill crushers out there can only crush small pills and cannot handle turning larger pills into powder. Crush handles all sizes with an added bonus of the top doubling as a pill case.

#REVIEW #Konad Nail Art Double Ended Stamper And Scraper

I bought the KONAD set for my daughter as it was underlined  and *stars*all over* on her wish list. I'm always a little leery with "as seen on TV" type items.  The KONAD didn't disappoint.
Works great, does as described. Easy to clean and use. Makes doing nail art fun and easy. My Daughter  really enjoy doing her nails up like at a fancy salon 
~so many different nail art  plates 
~there are an amazing amount of patterns 
~You could have different nails every day for months  
It's totally worth it and great price. So much cheaper then having them done.

All the pieces and  how it's advertised
to turn out. 

Kayleigh's first attempt
and the result...the edges need to be
cleaned-up--but over all
VERY PROFESSIONAL LOOKING!!!



There is a little trial and error with the 
amount of nail polish  and how
much pressure you have to apply with
the scraper and 
stamper.
Over all we give this product 


opinions are 100% my own and I was NOT compensated for this review in any way

What I'm Pinning-- Healthy
